The report

Boat inspection reports that show what needs attention.

Turn your inspection findings and photos into a report with your company’s name, logo and colors. It shows what needs Action first, then what to Watch, then what passed. Send the owner a link that opens without an account, or provide a PDF.

Each completed check is marked Pass, Watch or Action. A skipped check shows as Not checked, so the owner can see it was not completed.

Sample boat inspection report: what needs attention and what changed since the last visit.

Findings are ordered by what happened, not by system. The report opens with what changed since the last visit and names each check that changed. The data below is for the example boat Kestrel.

Inside the report

Five things on every report.

Owners can read it in minutes on their phone. Here is what they see, in order.

A. Your name and logo first.
The report carries your company’s name, not ours.

B. The score and what changed.
Every item that changed since the last visit, with its previous and current status.

C. What needs action, first.
Every Action item includes photos so you can see the problem.

D. What to watch, and what passed.
Watch items come next, followed by everything that passed, grouped by location aboard.

E. When each photo was taken.
Every photo shows when it was taken, separate from when it was uploaded. The report records what was documented that day.

The same visit, three useful views

See the visit by owner summary, visit details or equipment records.

The same inspection answers are organized three ways, so you can get to the information you need without digging through the whole report.

Owner summary
What needs Action, what to Watch, the score and what changed since the last visit. See the main findings at a glance.

Visit details in the order the technician walked the boat
Checks are grouped by place aboard, in the route the technician actually took through the boat.

Equipment records for each item aboard
The boat’s three fridges appear together, with their make, model and serial numbers and every question asked about them. A captain can use those equipment details when ordering a part.

See what was Not checked
Equipment aboard that was not checked gets a line saying so. The report makes missing checks visible instead of silently leaving them out.

The report records where the boat was

The marina and slip from the day of the visit.

Each report is a frozen record of that visit, including where the boat was. Reissuing a report creates a new version with a new link. The old link tells the reader that a newer version exists.

The marina and slip stay with that visit

The report keeps the marina and slip from the day of the visit. If the boat moves later, the old report still shows where it was for that visit.

In the app, tap the boat's address to open navigation

This is in the app, not the report. Tap the address on the boat’s screen and the phone starts navigating. A technician going to an unfamiliar boat does not have to retype the address.

Find photos by place aboard

Group the photo library by where aboard each photo was taken, or by day. If you need to see what happened in the engine room, you can go straight to those photos.

Your company leads the report

Your name, logo and colors, not ours.

The inspection report is never sent automatically. The technician chooses when to share a link, send a PDF or print it. Overdue visit reminders are separate. They go through your connected Gmail, Outlook or SMTP mailbox once you set one up, or through a shared YachtGrade sender if you have not.

Your company’s name, logo and colors lead the report.
Your company’s name, logo and colors appear on the report, its PDF and the link preview. One small line says “Report made with YachtGrade,” with no link. There is no setting to remove it.

A report stays as the owner received it.
Change your logo later and a report already sent still shows the logo it had when it was issued.

Use the standard disclaimer or your own.
The standard wording is the default. If you replace it with your own disclaimer, yours appears on the report instead.

A YachtGrade report is a condition and readiness report. It is not a survey, is not carried out by an accredited surveyor, and is not a substitute for a pre-purchase, insurance or damage survey. Kestrel and every figure on this page are examples.
